IRISH JUDGE CRUFTS 20

My thanks to all exhibitors for entering and graceful acceptance of my placings. To my stewards, Gary and Caroline for smooth management. Collectively, without doubt some very good points in the breed I found on the day, especially the lovely dark eyes giving the correct expression, good mouths and feet. Type and soundness in the younger exhibits coming through augers well for the breed.

1 Fooke’s Montelle I’m Dylan. This pup was confident on the move both ways, with good coat, nice head and expression, racy outline, does not need to grow on. Best Puppy Dog.

1 Hardman’s Bonsue It’s An Illusion. Liked his type, lovely long and lean head and a good expression. Correct size, good coat and moved well both ways, holding his topline.

2 O’Meara’s Megacant What’s Another Year. Very confident, moved and showed very well both ways. Nice size, good expression, though head not as good as the winner.
